"Let's go caroling house to house. And then apartment to apartment. By bus. And by kayak. Why shouldn't everyone get to hear the beauty of our voices?"

"Bequeath a wreath. It's fun -- just leave one hanging on somebody's door or in an office cubicle. Make it a surprise, and maybe leave a note on it that says something like: "This wreath is a circle. Do something nice for somebody else and keep this circle going."

At a Starbucks drive-thru in Riverside, California, a customer spontaneously decided to pay for the drink of the person behind him. That delighted person was then inspired to pay for the drink of the person behind her, who then did likewise. What then transpired was an amazing chain reaction of cheer passing that lasted for seven cars.

(I did this, this morning, myself. I gave the cashier my change and told him to pay for as many people that it covered. He was surprised, certainly. I can only hope that it inspired the person behind me to do the same.)

Hold the door open for somebody laden with packages. Serve hot chocolate and coffee to passing carolers. Pay the toll for the car behind you. Or do something nice for somebody you don't even know. When you pass the cheer through little moments like this, you create warmth that outshines the brightest holiday lights.
